| Describe yourself in 140 characters or less: | Ground chili powders produced by indigenous Achuar women in the Ecuadorian Amazon. |
| Bio: | Ají Jimia supports indigenous communities and agrobiodiversity by producing delicious chili powders, made from chilis produced by Achuar indigneous women of the Ecuadorian Amazon. Chilis have long played an essential role in Amazon communities, where they are grown in chakras, small agricultural plots in the forest maintained by families and communities. The chilis are grown, dried, and ground by hand by the Achuar women, and then sent to the city to be further dried and sieved for impurities. This activity allows them to maintain ancestral practices, conserve forest by adding value to their native biodiversity, and generate income for their communities. |
